yeah. Cold starts like ****, TB makes a ton of noise when I key to position 1, and it has the intermittent "hiccup" issue when I roll in to the tp tip in under certain loads. Fun stuff.

Craig didn't you have a BBK on your Weistec setup? How were the driving manners?

Only 1 person with Weistec has a 90TB? I thought there were a few running around.

i also have one and have similar issues as previously mentioned. Wondering if it's tune related or just inherent with TB. Might even go back to a 82

You could always bore out the 82 to 85 by shaving down the hump on the blade like guys were doing a few years ago????

Tired and true the 82mm is best for that kit..Rest is headaches and waste of time,I can bet that the 90mm must run like crap in between shifts more so normal driving.This why i didn't go with it.
